PROPELLER SELECTION
Outboard — Running
To select the correct propeller for your boating ap-
plication, your boat and motor MUST be water test-
ed. See your DEALER for assistance.
Refer  to  Propeller,  before  removing  or  installing
propeller.
WARNING
Prevent  injury  from   contact  with  rotating
propeller;   remove    the    propeller   before
flushing.
IMPORTANT: The correct propeller for your boat,
under normal load conditions, will allow the engine
to  run  near  the  midpoint  of  the  RPM  operating
range at full throttle.   Refer to Engine Specifica-
tions.
1)
Place the engine in vertical position in a well-
ventilated area with good drainage.
Install flushing device and garden hose.
Place the remote control lever in NEUTRAL
with the propeller removed.

4)
Start the water — keep pressure between 20
to 40 psi (140 to 300 kPa).
You may moor your boat with the motor’s gearcase
out of the water by using its tilt feature. Depending
on the model, refer to  Tilting or Power Trim and
Tilt.
FLUSHING
DANGER
DO NOT run the engine indoors or without
adequate   ventilation    or   permit   exhaust
fumes   to  accumulate   in  confined   areas.

which,  if  inhaled,  can  cause  serious  brain
damage or death.

ter must flow. If it does not, shut OFF the en-
gine   and   investigate.    Refer   to   Engine
